When having a solid fuel appliance installed, it is vital you use a registered installer, as your insurance requires your install to be signed off and commissioned by a registered installer. When selling your house, the estate agent will inform you that by having your appliance signed off it can also increase the value of your home. It is also vital for landlords to have the appliance signed off for the tenants to make use of the appliance.

Power Sweeping

Why settle for the old ways of sweeping a flue? Previously a client had only two choices when thinking of having a flue swept: the brush and rod or the line and ball methods. Both methods were stuck in the past, until now. They have been proved to be less than gentle to your chimney liner and its construction. Now there is a faster, cleaner, gentler and much more effective way of sweeping: power sweeping.

The older brush and rod and the line and ball methods have drawbacks. One is the friction caused by a brush pressing against the flue, especially an old one, which can cause damage. The up and down movement of the brush has been known, as all sweeps know, to dislodge parts of the wall of an old unlined flue, possibly weakening the chimney. Power sweeping is much kinder. The power sweeper acts much like a strimmer and cuts through soot and tar. Unlike the traditional methods, it puts no pressure on the flue, so it is much better for metal liners and older flues.

Neither of the older methods of sweeping are able to remove third stage tar from the inner liner, and using a scraper to remove second degree tar is slower and unreliable. The power sweeper, in contrast, removes all three tar deposits without damage to the liner.

When sweeping a square chimney, the brush and rod or line and ball sweeps into the corners, leaving soot and tar deposits on the sides of the flue. In contrast, with power sweeping the brush head expands to suit the flue you are sweeping, and it also centres itself.

Power sweeping also removes bird nests and other blockages with greater ease than the older methods.

Co Alarms and Smoke Detectors

We supply and fit Carbon Monoxide Detectors for your home. Co/Smoke detectors are vital for your safety at home, offering protection against gases that are hard to detect because they are colourless, tasteless and have no smell.

Flue Liner Removal

If you are planning on using your fireplace, but there is an old gas flue liner still in your chimney, then this will need to be removed. These gas flues cannot be used with an open fireplace as their to small, it can also have a big affect on the updraught.

Cowls/Bird Guards/Chimney Pots

To protect your chimney from birds, rain, downdraft or even to improve the updraft, cowls are an essential part of your chimney.

If your not protected from the top to bottom, there is a risk of birds nesting in your chimney, which could cause a fatal blockage. With the installation of a Cowl/Bird guard, you will not have to worry any more about those pesky birds.

Many people also have a problem with rain falling down the chimney. A cowl would help with this problem, as well as protecting your chimney from birds.

If you have no chimney pot on your chimney, no need to worry, Clean Sweep will install the pot for you and then fit the recommended cowl.

Custom made Stove Closure/Register Plates

Our custom made closure/register plates are made to your measurements and so offer the advantage that they are designed to fit. The galvanised steel register plates are much better than the fireboard that many people use, and they will not break and crumble like many boards do. 
If you require a closure/register plate to go above your stove, just get in touch and to arrange a time for Clean Sweep Chimney Services to come around and take the required measurements.
Closure plates are installed with every Stove we install. Closure plate is installed when there is a liner in the chimney, and a register plate when there is no liner.
